RE: Canadian Housing Bubble Will Burst
Fair enough. Just used the term they used in the article.
When you said you hate the word bubble, did you mean that the article is exaggerating the condition of the housing market?
I guess it is just too easy to use such word in so many occasion. I tell people about steem and alt coin, the first thing they said would be isn't it bubble? That doesn't really help to understand the issue underneath it. I just feel opportunity will be missed if we used a word like this.
But I agree housing price worldwide has reached to an unprecedented level.
Good point. I agree that people, from time to time, throw terms they don't fully understand. I've seen people claim to sell AI-driven apps, when in reality decisions are simply driven by conditional controls.
Definitely, I just don't like how nowadays will categorize everything as bubble and then when it bursts, they will say I told you so. But how many investment they have missed before that :)
Yeah I guess the key is to invest for the long haul, maximizing diversification while minimizing costs, ignoring all the noise from the markets. However, for speculators, it's always about timing the markets to find opportunities early and profit at the peak, which isn't exactly easy.
Honestly, I feel like if people buy houses, they shouldn't do so as a financial investment, but just as a desired possession that can be called home.
